NAR Letter to Appraisal Foundation Regarding Revisions to AQB for Required Fair Housing Training

On July 14 NAR sent a letter thanking the Appraiser Qualifications Board's efforts to support fair housing and to eliminate bias in valuations. NAR believes regular fair housing training is essential for those involved in the business of real estate. To this end, NAR urges the Appraiser Qualifications Board of the Appraisal Foundation to revise the real property appraiser qualification criteria to require fair housing and valuation bias training for both qualifying and continuing education.
